About this book

In Arupa Patangia Kalita’s stories, contemporary women in Assam take centerstage. The deeply lyrical and empathetic stories talk about issues like surrogacy, migration, living in a colonial legacy, employment, and history―all of which affect women in the region today.

In Mitra Phukan’s nuanced translation, the region and its people come alive. A deeply compelling and satisfying collection for lovers of contemporary fiction, The Owl, the River, the Valley is a deeply compelling journey into Assam.
